Abstract

A method and system for controlling a vehicle that includes a first propulsion system with a first torque generator and coupled to a first drive member, a second propulsion system with a second torque generator and coupled to a second drive member. The method includes measuring a speed of the first drive member, estimating a speed of the first drive member using a model of the first propulsion system that includes a modeled first rotational inertia and a modeled first translational inertia that are rigidly connected to each other and a model of a first coupling between the modeled first propulsion system and a model of the second propulsion system, and comparing the measured speed of the first drive member to the estimated speed of the first drive member.
